Everyone needs to escape sometimes. Matunuck offers the perfect sanctuary.
Mick Maguire and Shelly Newsome struggle with the ultimate tragedy - an event so traumatic, it nearly tears them apart.
While Mick seeks a reconciliation with the woman he loves, he cares for an injured, rare and endangered seabird as his father slowly declines toward an eventual end.
When a disgraced, adversarial celebrity with a score to settle sues Mick for copyright infringement and the Maguire family protests a gaudy, controversial real estate development deal that threatens to destroy the local charm of their quaint village, the tiny Rhode Island beach community of Matunuck once again erupts in chaos and derision.
Mick finds himself as an underdog, engaged in a vicious legal battle against high-powered corporate lawyers, a fight against the cruelty of Mother Nature and a struggle to repair the love and affection he once experienced with the beautiful but emotionally wounded Shelly Newsome.
He works through these challenges, all while the ravages of time slowly wipe away a generation of Matunuck elders, causing him and his siblings to suffer the painful process of letting go and saying goodbye to their beloved, ailing father.
